C&C per req:

1. GREAT shot; wonderful connection between the two, nice lighting. A shame about the foot, but that's livable-with. Crop a bit of the empty foreground and dark RH side away and it's a winner!

2. It's a materinity shot.... you know, the belly? The thing you cropped????? I can deal with the cropped head and elbow (I don't like them, but they're not the end of the world), but cropping the belly??? In a materinity shot?

3. Too much empty space image left; it's good to move them off-centre, but this is too much. You've either blown or nearly blown the whites in the clothing, and SEE COMMENTS ABOVE, RE: CROPPING THE BELLY!!!!

Overall, they're not bad EXCEPT for that whole cropped belly. Pretty much kills them as materinity shots IMO. I would recommend a re-shoot!

Just my $00.02 worth - your mileage may vary.

1. Great shot on this one except for the foot chop. I really like the expressions on the both of them.
2. Yeah, the belly crop on this one blows the shot but also when doing shots like this have the guy place his hands under the breast line next time. Then it doesn't look like he is grabbing on to her chest. It just looks kinda funny. Also, good connection between them in this shot.
3. This one I am not feeling. The siding is not straight, which is a distraction and there is too much of it. Your colors are way off on this one and not to mention the hand chops and the belly chop.
